SAD 15 budget

Administrators will provide a full presentation with budget details to the public and School Board on Saturday, March 6 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the GNG High School Cafetorium. (Continental breakfast and lunch will be provided.)

The loss of significant state subsidy for education shaped SAD 15’s budget development and will continue to do so for several years. It is vital, therefore, for the School Board to receive public feedback as it problem-solves how to maintain quality educational opportunities for our students as revenue declines. This is the opportunity to get your questions answered or to provide the School Board with this feedback.
